How the BWF Ranking System Works

Sep 13 2026

Players earn ranking points by competing in BWF-sanctioned tournaments.

Points vary based on tournament level and finishing position — higher-tier events offer more points.

Rankings follow a rolling 52-week cycle, meaning points expire after a year.

A player or pair’s ranking is calculated from their 10 best performances within this period.

Regular updates reflect form, participation, and results across the World Tour.

1. How are the BWF World Rankings calculated?

The BWF World Rankings are determined by the sum total of points earned by a player or pair in the preceding 52 weeks.

2. How many tournaments are counted?

Only the 10 highest-scoring events by a player or pair over the last 52 weeks are counted towards their World Ranking. If a player/pair has participated in fewer than 10 tournaments, all of them are counted.

3. How are ranking points awarded?

Points are awarded based on two main factors:

1. Tournament Level: Higher-tier tournaments (e.g., Super 1000, World Championships, Olympic Games) award more points.

2. Tournament Stage: The further a player/pair progresses in the event (Winner, Runner-up, Semi-finalist, etc.), the more points they earn.

4. When are the rankings published?

The official BWF World Rankings are typically updated and published every Thursday.

5. What happens if two players have the same number of points?

If two or more players/pairs have an identical number of points, the player/pair who has played in the most tournaments will be ranked higher. If the points and number of tournaments are identical, they are ranked equal.

6. What are the five disciplines that have BWF Rankings?

The BWF maintains separate World Rankings for five disciplines: Men's Singles (MS), Women's Singles (WS), Men's Doubles (MD), Women's Doubles (WD), and Mixed Doubles (XD).
